Qt/Android on Debian?

Mucip

Hi,
I tryed the below page on Debian 9.9 64 bit:

https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/android-getting-started.html

But I could not install abd find below packages?...

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 libgcc1:i386 zlib1g:i386 libncurses5:i386
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian:i386

Why? I really want to programing on Android with Qt but installing and running program is really difficult!

Regards,
Mucip:)

Why?

Probably because package names changed in the meantime. Try to search for them like:

apt search libstdc++

And which packages are actually not found?

Mucip

@jsulm ,
I searched but not result?!
Qt document is new in fact. Why did they change the document with the newer names?!... :(

Hi,

apt-cache search libstdc++ will give you all the versions available. And 6 is part of it.

In any case, you have to setup your system for multiarch.

Which would boil down to:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update

Followed by the installation instructions.

Yes I followed below page and now it's OK.

But in any case I can still see my device on device list?!... I opened developer mod on my phone.

What you guess aboy this problem?

On my android phone error message come up:
Connected device (computer) can not this phone. Vheck the usb cable and try egain.

SGaist

Well... I would do as suggested and check with a different cable.

Mucip

@SGaist
Unfortunatelly I already change second... :(

SGaist

Did you also tried with a different USB port ?

What device is that by the way ?

Mucip

@SGaist ,
Unfortunatelly yes.
Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro
Model code: SM-J730F

SGaist

One thing you can try is to follow the phone part of the procedure described in this article. The rest is for a Windows computer but it's at least a start.

What happens if you used adb directly ? Can you communicate with your phone ?

Mucip

How will I do this?...

Regards,

SGaist

Well... Use the adb command to e.g. list the devices, etc.

Mucip

@SGaist ,
I guess I've got problem with the Debian which is installed in VirtualBox as a guest and the Samsung phone?!... :(

I can see the Samsung Android device in VirtulaBox usb device list but can not reach the Telephone content!...

Regards,
Mucip:)

jsulm

@Mucip I don't use VirtualBox, but in VMWare you have to pass the USB device to the virtual machine, so it can access it. Maybe you need to do the same in VirtualBox?

Mucip

@jsulm
I already did it... :(

Infact I can see my phone in "Compatible device". But when I run the code Qt can not reach the telephone memory or disk?!...

Regards,
Mucip:)

SGaist

I know I insists but adb is the command line tool used to interact with android devices, hence my suggestion to use it and try to manually pull and push stuff on your phone.

Hi @Mucip
in linux I have never worrie about the drivers, but yes for the tools, especially for his architecture and permission, but all of it depend on the distribution
I always use this to setup my environment in linux
Tipos Debian, Ubuntu, LinuxMint
$ sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 libgcc1:i386 zlib1g:i386 libncurses5:i386 libc6:i386 lib32z1 libbz2-1.0:i386

Tipos Fedora, OpenSuse
yum install glibc.i686 glibc-devel.i686 libstdc++.i686 zlib-devel.i686 ncurses-devel.i686 libX11-devel.i686 libXrender.i686 libXrandr.i686

After that, download Android SDK, check permission for adb and the other tools in SDK, if need it

And finally configure QtCreator with SDK, NDK, Java
